Experts advise keeping windows closed between late morning and early evening during hot weather because outdoor air is often warmer than indoor air, which can trap heat inside homes. Closing curtains or blinds during peak sunlight and ventilating only when outside temperatures fall helps prevent overheating. Guidance from the Energy Saving Trust and the UK Health Security Agency also recommends reducing heat from appliances, managing airflow with internal doors and cross‑breezes, and using fans effectively once temperatures drop.

Dog owners in the UK heatwave are urged to use a seven‑second ‘back of hand’ pavement test promoted by Vets Now to prevent pets from suffering severe paw burns. Pavements, artificial grass and rubber surfaces can reach dangerous temperatures even in moderate weather, prompting advice to walk dogs only during cooler periods.
